sched: Send NOHZ kick to idle cpu in same cluster
A busy cpu will kick (via IPI) one of the idle cpus in tickless state
to run load balance and help move tasks off itself. The cpu chosen to
receive kick is simply the "first" idle cpu found in
nohz.idle_cpus_mask. This could cause unnecessary wakeups of a
cluster. A better choice would be to look for an idle cpu that is in
the same cluster as busy cpu, which should minimize cluster wakeups.
